@AdobeCare Photoshop has an accessibility issue affecting users with visual impairments like myself. When the cursor is set to large (MacOS) it doesn't match the brush size. Please fix to improve access. #accessibility #photoshop #Disability #adobe #Apple

Today is National Physician Suicide Awareness Day.

I am a physician who struggles with suicidal ideations.

I want to be very clear: This is not a resource problem. This is a system problem. 🧵 (1/18)

Unfriendly reminder that a lot of disabled people who depend on disability benefits can't marry or they could lose their benefits. The benefits that often keeps them alive.

There just isn't marriage equality for disabled people. This needs to change!

This is a great opportunity for any @ohiostate or @UNLincoln/@UNL_ODI undergrad who:
-has an identity that has historically been excluded from the health care profession
-needs the flexibility of this digital lab
-wants pre-health mentorship
-wants leadership opportunities

To all those in charge of clinical/commercial purchasing - *PLEASE* stop buying these!! They are nearly impossible to open/use if you don't have the use of your feet. These are terrible for #disabled users. @RubbermaidComm , please make something better. @UMich @umichmedicine

I know what it's like to not have access to HRT and struggled with dysphoria. Starting testosterone at 15 saved my life and gave me hope. I wouldn't be here without the support of my healthcare providers who knew my identity was not a phase. #TransHealthcare #TransRights

If Ohio House Bill 454 passes, Transgender children and teens will die. The American Academy of Pedicatric supports hormone therapy for Trans youth (https://t.co/ii2egnGsQQ). You can prevent those dealths by not letting this bill pass. @OHHouseDems @OHRGOPCaucus @GovMikeDeWine

House Bill 454, called the Save Adolescents from Experimentation (SAFE) Act, is sponsored by a quarter of the Ohio House. All are Republicans. https://t.co/gMahBhzHAs

I was a Trans teen when bathroom bills started sweeping the nation. I expereinced the pain it caused and the very real danger it presented to my friends, my community, and myself. Do not do that same thing to today's Trans youth by weponizing healthcare.

The @POWERSkillsLab is leveraging a student-centered approach & digital infrastructure to empower historically-excluded pre-health students at @UNLincoln & @OhioState to be future health care leaders.

Heard from a medical student yesterday a prof when asked about consent instructed the class “You’re the doctor, they’re the patient, you have permission.” This is why medical trauma is a thing people. Just ask. #consent #MedTwitter #DisabilityTwitter #MedicalTrauma

stools bolted to the floor at low counter seating at cafes, diners, etc are ableist against me, a lover of cafes, diners, etc

[Kayden Gill @Kayden_Gill]

Proud to be one of them.

Empathy is not the ability to understand someone else’s experience; empathy is the capacity to recognize what it means to be othered, paired with the humility, and respect required to surrender our expertise.

@Gala_Shine Thank you Gala!

[Dr. “Dad” MD, FAAP, FASN @DrRayMD]

Y’all: A FAMILY DROVE SIX HOURS (!) to see me in clinic.

They waited WEEKS for an appointment.

Why?

They wanted a 2nd opinion… from a Black Pediatric Nephrologist.

“We searched for you, Dr Ray.”

I’ve never been more honored.

I recently learned Memoji’s has an eye patch option. I would’ve loved this when I was patching as a little kid. Exposure to and normalizing variation is such an important part of teaching kids (and adults) to be good humans. Keep it up Apple. #amblyopia #inclusion #Apple

I received the first dose of the Moderna COVID-19 vaccine on Wednesday here in D.C.! I may have had a "reaction" to NOT getting a vaccine over 70 years ago (Polio), but I have never had a reaction to getting one! 😂 Gotta laugh every once in a while. #NothingAboutUsWithoutUs

[Paralympic Games @Paralympics]

Limb difference is not scary. Differences should be celebrated and disability has to be normalised.

#NotAWitch calls out ‘#TheWitches’ movie for portrayal of disability 👉 https://t.co/aSY1U6TymE
